No. What does the Bible say about that? The Bible says gossiping is a sin, dude. You're not supposed to do that. Did you guys just see that right now? Tell them to repent.
Is gossip a sin and why does Johnny believe it divides churches?
Both of them.
Keep it down next time.
What? Hey, man.
Do you think Johnny's kind of mean? Right now? Oh, what's up? Hey, Johnny. Dude, you're so cool and nice.
Oh.
Hey, this sounds like some VeggieTales.
Acting it out like super quirky.
Whoa.
Yeah, yeah. Johnny's really smelly. Oh, the audience, boo. Yeah, and then when I see him, wow, Johnny, you smell so nice today. Jeez. And the cut scene.
Is that okay according to the Bible?
He's like, my goodness, I just ate the fish sauce. What do you mean I smelled good today? Wow.
And then it's like the narrator's like, Johnny's oblivious.
Yeah, but basically, we've all had people gossip behind our backs. And to be honest, you guys probably gossiped at least once in your life. Everybody's done that. So, you know, we're going to unpack that. Is it biblical? You know, is gossiping a sin? What if it's just telling the truth, right? I mean, what if it's just information being put out there? Who knows? So we're going to address all of those things today in this episode. Yes. Yes, sir. So... There was one time where I was gossiping.
Only one time?
One time that it was bad. And this is after I was saved too. I was a baby Christian, but I would gossip about my pastor. Pastor Kim? Yes. It was the first time I left the church. When I left the church, I would then like, because I didn't want to be wrong, I literally made him wrong and I made the church wrong.
You used to be one of your current Reddit haters.
Pretty much. I would go there and I would be like, he didn't exalt me. But, you know, because you're like loving the church and then like there's nothing wrong with it. So you have to find and dig and find something wrong with it. Right. And so I went to this one church and they were kind of like just saying things about my church, the current church I'm at. And I was like, you know what? Why am I backing these people up, man? I don't care about them. And then I kind of like leaned into it. And then I realized like I just felt nasty. Like I felt the ick. I was like. Man, I know I'm just being sensitive right now. I know I'm like being exalted. And so like, this is not cool to like pitchfork people, you know?
And so I felt like Holy Spirit gave me that conviction through the word where it was telling me in Proverbs, like a person who holds his peace, even a foolish person who holds his peace is wise. right? And I'm like, why am I really mad? And I kind of sat there and I struggled internally. And I was like, okay, so they kicked me out. Well, they didn't kick me out, but they chastised me. I didn't like that they corrected me. So I left. And when I left, I was kind of mad that they didn't like come back and reach out to me. So I was like, all right, well then forget them. They're not the real church. And from that pain, Satan worked through my wound. And then I was just like, gossip that one time and i just didn't feel good about it at all that's a bar right there uh a fool that holds his pee who wrote that where'd you get that proverbs wait so it did get back to the it did get back to pastor no it actually didn't and and you know i kind of started to realize the more i stood next to pastor how much people gossip about pastor hmm
And this was early on, you know, in the churches where it wasn't that many like Koth members. It wasn't any Koth members, but it was just regular people who were just like prideful and shameful. There was like a wave of like egotistical like feelings kind of going and surging through that church at that through that time period in the church.
